    Approaching No­Kill: Challenges and Solutions for the Los Angeles Animal Services Department Caroline Nasella April 28, 2006 UEP Comps 1 TABLE OF CONTENTS Executive Summary 3 Introduction 4 Chapter I: The Players and Politics Behind the LAAS Controversy 9 Chapter II: Methods 20 Chapter III: Animal Shelters and the Companion­Pet Surplus 26 Chapter IV: The Animal Welfare and Liberation Philosophy 39 Chapter V: What is possible: The San Francisco SPCA And Animal Care and Control Facilities 47 Chapter VI: A Policy Analysis of the Los Angeles Animal Services Department 69 Chapter VII: Recommendations 80 Conclusion 86 Bibliography 89 2 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This paper is an examination of the Los Angeles Animal Services (LAAS) Department. It looks at the historical, political and philosophical context of the Department. It examines the validity of grievances made by local animal welfare groups against the Department and analyzes the LAAS Department structure and policies. Using a comparative case­study, it identifies the San Francisco animal care facilities as effective models for LAAS. Through an exploration of such themes, this report makes pragmatic policy recommendations for the Department with the goal of lowering shelter euthanasia rates. 3 INTRODUCTION 4 When asked about why activists have targeted LAAS in recent years, cofounder of Animal Defense League – Los Angeles (ADL­LA) Jerry Vlasik argued that the group wanted to focus on one municipal shelter whose reformed policies could translate “throughout the nation”. He believes that if the city goes “no­kill” it will serve as a model for all cities. Vlasik contends that LAAS is not worse than other municipalities.

  • 2019 Biennial Compensation and Benefits Survey EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Information Submitted on Or Before May 7, 2020
    2019 Biennial Compensation and Benefits Survey EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Information Submitted on or before May 7, 2020 I N T R O D U C T I O N A N D I N S I G H T S Organizations in the field of animal welfare employ a unique workforce with distinctive expertise in leadership, organizational governance, animal protection, animal cruelty investigation, behavior rehabilitation, veterinary care, adoption, fundraising, advocacy, human resources, finance, community education and collaboration. Although compensation and benefits surveys exist for many industries, no salary study is compatible with the knowledge and skills needed for mastery of animal welfare. For that reason, The Association for Animal Welfare Advancement (The Association) leadership were compelled to begin collecting data in 2003 (based on FY 2002 data). Since 2003, animal welfare services have evolved: adoption is no longer the main activity at animal care facilities as the numbers of homeless dogs and cats have declined in many regions; community needs have altered; collaborations and mergers have increased; and, animal focused legislation has fluctuated. In response, animal care facilities models continue to adapt to community and animal needs. Consequently The Association volunteer leadership continually reviews the compensation and benefits survey adding or altering job descriptions and accessing needs for additional decision making data. For instance, the effect on salary of those achieving Certified Animal Welfare Administrator (CAWA) status; or, being a male/female in the same role are now studied. In 2019 the first “digital” survey was launched, based on FY 2018 data, allowing participants to instantly compare their data with other regions and budget size over a variety of key performance indicators.

  • December 3, 2009 RE: PROPOSED U.S. MILITARY AIR BASE
    December 3, 2009 RE: PROPOSED U.S. MILITARY AIR BASE EXPANSION NEAR HENOKO, OKINAWA Dear President Obama, Secretary Clinton, Secretary Gates, and Ambassador Roos: The island of Okinawa has been called the “Galápagos of the East” because of the incredible variety of marine and terrestrial life it supports. Unfortunately, a joint military project proposed by the U.S. and Japanese governments threatens to destroy one of the last healthy coral-reef ecosystems in Okinawa, pushing many magnificent species to the brink of extinction. You have the power to protect these unique and priceless creatures. Under a 2006 bilateral agreement, U.S. and Japanese governments agreed to relocate the contentious U.S. Marine Corps’ Futenma Air Station to Camp Schwab and Henoko Bay. This shortsighted plan does not take into consideration that the relocation will destroy a valued ecosystem, including the nearly 400 types of coral that form Okinawa’s reefs and support more than 1,000 species of fish. It will also hurt imperiled sea turtles and marine mammals. Current plans call for construction of the new military base near Henoko and Oura bays in Okinawa. But the habitat this project would destroy supports numerous endangered species — animals protected by American, Japanese, and international law for their biological and cultural importance. These species include: Okinawa dugong: The critically endangered and culturally treasured dugong, a manatee-like creature, relies on this habitat for its very survival in Okinawa. Japan’s Mammalogical Society placed the dugong on its “Red List of Mammals,” estimating the population in Okinawa to be critically endangered. The U.S.

  • A GREATER GOOD for ALL a Guide to Effective Giving
    A GREATER GOOD FOR ALL A Guide to Effective Giving ANIMAL CHARITY EVALUATORS “Many people tell me that they want to change the way we treat animals, but don’t know to which organization they should give. I’m very pleased that now I can point them to Animal Charity Evaluators, where they can find the best available research and thoughtful discussion to A GREATER GOOD FOR ALL answer that difficult and very important question.” A Guide to Effective Giving -Peter Singer, Professor at Princeton University; 2014 Author of Animal Liberation ANIMAL CHARITY EVALUATORS A Letter From The Executive Director Dear Donors, We’ve all been there. You donate to one organization, and suddenly you’re knee-deep in solicitations from dozens of different organizations. How do you know where to give? How can you help the largest number of animals? We’ve all spent countless hours advocating for animals, but are we being effective? Animal Charity Evaluators was founded to answer those questions, and to empower you to maximize your impact as a donor. We are an independent evaluator organization that provides advice on which tactics produce the greatest good for animals and on which charities are most effective. We have no stake in any of the organizations that we evaluate, and have spent months considering over 100 different groups. We evaluated each of them based on their focus area, their financial reports, and on seven rigorous criteria which we describe later in this booklet. Based on our evaluations, we are proud to recommend Mercy For Animals and The Humane League as our top charities in 2014.
